To us we would like to provide something because we are a diverse community and debianera , but many women are not programmers and we thought about how to encourage . Think about our next steps in the programming and the ability to witness and participate in a dialogue MiniDebConf is very exciting. How has it been for you to organize a MiniDebConf ? We were aware of your comments. * excuse my english is terrible Gracias Gunnar, hola chicxs, sí estamos interesadxs en saber cuáles son sus expectativas y cómo generar los nodos necesarios para realizar una actividad de este tipo. A nosotras nos gustaría poder facilitar algo así porque somos una comunidad diversa y debianera, hay muchas mujeres pero no somos programadoras y hemos pensado en cómo animarnos. Pensar en nuestros próximos pasos en la programación y la posibilidad de presenciar y participar en los diálogos de una minidebconf es muy emocionante. ¿cómo ha sido para ustedes la organización de una minidebconf? Quedamos pendiente de sus comentarios. *disculpe que no sea mejor en español :D -- _,.-:*'``'*:-.,_Estrella PGP: DC6B B44C CD95 17D3 0480 5C4F 26B7 414A 67B0 8A54
